    Hey @garat , @neutrino

    With OSX 10.9 now freely available with updated drivers and OpenGL 4.1 support will you be shifting the targeted OpenGL version for PA on OSX from 2.1 upto one of these newer versions?

    It seems like it would simplify things seeing Linux appears to be targeting Opengl 3.x and I assume windows 3.x or 4.x?

    OS update doesn't give OpenGL 4.1 support for old cards. It's also not give it to drivers which not implement 4.x support.

    Both Linux and Windows versions use 3.x context. Also at this moment I don't see why PA might need any core features of OpenGL 4.x, so I doubt Uber will use it. If they'd like they can always functions they need though extensions.
